HST 540 Lecture 1: Beginning of Intelligence and World War 1
Document Summary
Need to know what csis (central security and intelligence services) stands for and other agencies in canada. Us does not fight wars for oil - they go for lots for reasons, oil is not one of them. Us is not friends with israel, us is cautious of israel. Gov agencies have to release info and docs eventually - most release in 30 years, the 30 year rule. Most have to release it because of petitions (usa mandatory review, freedom of info act) Lecture 1 espionage: the act of spying intelligence: is information, but not all info is intelligence. If every single piece of info was acted upon then the world as it is would cease to be. When he was at csis there were many 9/11 like attacks that were talked about but we never heard of. Maybe you allow a terrorist attack to occur so you don"t take away civil liberties.
